A warm welcome...

A note from the Executive Director:
From the Brushy Mountains to Lake Hickory, our county offers residents and visitors scenic beauty, a safe environment, a healthy economy, and an abundance of community events. In short, Alexander County is a wonderful place to call home.

As beautiful as our landscape is, our greatest asset is the community of giving and caring people that do call this county home. Alexander County has retained that "hometown" friendliness even though our county has grown by leaps and bounds and offers the conveniences of a larger city. We are a strong family-oriented community with a common goal to continue to excel in the quality of life that we enjoy. Our county is prospering and we have excellent opportunities on the horizon!

Alexander County offers the best of all worlds...the friendly "hometown" atmosphere of a small town...along with the conveniences and progress of the city. Our friendly, small town atmosphere turns visitors into residents!

Board of Directors
The Board of Directors of the Alexander County Chamber of Commerce serve for a three year term and can be re-elected. A nomination committee recruits new board members and the membership votes the individuals in.
